This addon will provide you with all the information currently in the Wowhead database showing all known locations of herbs, minerals and treasures. Now you can simply load up Gatherer, plug this database into it, and know what can be found in the zone you are in, without having to discover them yourself.

Wowhead will be providing regular dumps of their database to the Norganna team, who will then update the GathererDB Wowhead addon exclusively here on WoWInterface.

How it works
The import procedure is simple and painless. Once you have installed the AddOn and have reloaded the game, ensuring that both Gatherer and GathererDB_Wowhead are activated. When you finally log into the game, follow this procedure to import the new data into Gatherer:

Open Gatherer's configuration dialog.

Click on the red "Database" tab on the left-hand side of the dialog.

Click the import button in the main panel.

Make sure to add GathererDB-Wowhead to your favourites list here on WoWInterface and check back periodically to see if it's been updated, or get an email sent to you whenever they update it if you have those notifications turned on. Any time they update it, just re-download GathererDB-Wowhead and update your local copy.

Help improve the database
If you want to contribute your data back to Wowhead to continue expanding the database, please download and install the Wowhead client (available for both PC and Mac) and just follow the instructions on their site.

About Gatherer
Gatherer is an addon for herbalists, miners and treasure hunters in World of Warcraft. It's main purpose is to track the closest plants, deposits and treasure locations on your minimap.

The addon does not track like a tracking ability does, rather it "remembers" where you have found various items in the past. It does this whenever you gather (perform herbalism, mining, or opening) on an item, and records the specific map location in its history. From then on, whenever the item comes into range of being one of the closest 1-25 (configurable) items to your present location, it will pop up on the minimap.

When you view your World Map, you will also see the item locations clearly marked on each zone's map.

I did not get an import button to press either. I clicked all over the main panel just in case the button was hidden but no luck! If it matters, this is a fresh install of warcraft so I had not imported any of the previous databases on this computer.

So I installed the newest Gather with the DB that is on the site, and went ot follow the import steps. I couldn't find any of the red buttons on the side when I went to Config, can some one tell me if my version is bugged or if I have the beta for the next version by mistake?

I am having the same problem. I made sure the slidebar and HUD are enabled. What should be listed under addons? I have Gatherer and its sub-item for the heads up display, but I do not have one for GathererDB and suspect I should. Is that right? I downloaded the zip, in my Addons directory there is a folder named "GathererDB WoWHead" and it has two lua files and a .toc. I've closed and restarted the game multiple times now, not sure what else to try. Any ideas?

I have just posted an updated version which works with Gatherer 4.0.4 (also just released). Unfortunately, this release doesn't include any new data, but I am still working on new data and I'm hoping to have a new version out sometime tonight or tomorrow if I can get my scripts working correctly.

In the mean time, I felt it was important to provide an update so that things worked correctly for the existing data.
